Welcome to Los Angeles City College’s Online Counseling
Express Counseling
Online Express Counseling is usually a 10-15 minute conversation with a counselor for any of the following:
- Prerequisite clearances
- Course advisement
- Information about associate degree/certificate programs
- General education patterns
- IGETC / CSU GE-Breadth inquiries and certification
- Information about important enrollment deadlines and registration assistance
- Clarification of college policies and procedures

Express Counseling is not for comprehensive education plans, transcript evaluations, financial aid appeals, academic probation appeals, or graduation checks and graduation petitioning. If you need more than 10-15 minutes, you will be referred to schedule a counseling appointment.
Counseling Appointments
